Falcon Gold Corp. (TSX VENTURE:FG) wishes to announce that the TSX Venture
Exchange (the "Exchange") has conditionally accepted its previously announced
Option Agreement ("the Agreement") on its Burton Property with Trelawney Mining
and Exploration Inc. (TSX VENTURE:TRR) ("Trelawney"). Final acceptance by the
Exchange is subject to disinterested shareholder approval, which the Company
intends to obtain by written consent.


Due to the fact that Mr. David Beilhartz is a director of Falcon and is also an
officer of Trelawney, the TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.3 deems the transaction
to be "non-arms length" and the Exchange requires Falcon to obtain disinterested
shareholder consent. The Company intends to seek the written consent of over 50%
of the disinterested shareholders of the Company (all shareholders except the
aforementioned director).


About the Option Agreement

Under the terms of the Agreement, Trelawney can earn up to a 75% interest in the
Burton Gold Property through the successful execution of the following two
stages: 




1.  Trelawney may earn a 51% interest in the Burton Property by paying
    $150,000 in cash to Falcon Gold and completing $600,000 in exploration
    expenditures on or before February 16, 2013 (Phase 1 of the option
    agreement), and 
    
2.  Trelawney may earn an additional 24% interest by incurring an additional
    $600,000 in exploration expenditures on the property on or before
    February 16, 2014 (Phase 2 of the option agreement). 



Under the terms of the agreement, upon the completion of Phase 1, Falcon Gold
and Trelawney may form a Joint Venture on the Burton Property.


Should Trelawney not complete Phase 2, they will retain their 51% interest in
the Burton Property and the Joint Venture Agreement will remain in place.


Falcon Gold will act as operator for the Phase 1 of the option agreement.

It is anticipated that the first phase of exploration will be diamond drilling
directed at following up historical drill intercepts as well as recently
completed drilling results completed by Falcon Gold at the Shaft Zone and at the
East Zone. Further evaluation will include property wide exploration. The Option
Agreement is subject to regulatory approval.


About the Burton Property

The Burton Property is located immediately west of Trelawney's property which
hosts the past producing Jerome Mine and the Cote Lake deposit, The Cote Lake
deposit, located approximately 38 km east of the Burton Property hosts an
inferred resource of 131 Mt @ 1.0 g/t (4.22 M Oz Au) and the Jerome deposit,
located approximately 8 km east of the Burton Property hosts a resource of 18.7
Mt @ 1.7 g/t (1.03 M Oz Au).


The Burton Property consists of 6 patented and 16 unpatented mining claims
encompassing 22 claim units (356 hectares) and is located in the Swayze
Greenstone Belt, Northeastern Ontario, approximately 150 kilometres (km) south
of Timmins and 180 km north of Sudbury. The Swayze Greenstone Belt is
interpreted as being correlative with the Abitibi Greenstone belt which hosts
the world class Kirkland Lake and Timmins gold mining camps. The Swayze
Greenstone belt is an active exploration centre including the exploration and
evaluation work being completed by Trelawney.


Historical diamond drill intercepts at the Burton Property include 9.34 grams
per ton ("g/t") over an intersection length of 7.75 metres ("m") at the Shaft
Zone and 12.47 g/t over an intersection length of 3.13 metres at the East Zone.

g/t Au over an intersection length of 10.35 m (including 5.65 g/t Au over 2.85
